Question:
I want to start a Youtube channel using my iphone 14 pro max. What tripod should I get to shoot top down videos? Any other equipment needed for Youtube?
— Tokie Williams
Answer:
So a couple of crucial things before we even talk about before we even talk about equipment one is lighting. Where will you be filming? What will the background noise be like Patrick and I were just having this conversation just before we came on because we were talking about sound and photos and other things like that. What will the photo quality be like it sounds as though if you have the new iPhone that that would be good. I have many many tripods one that I like the most has an articulated handle to it so that you can move around for different angles, but I did put up how to start a YouTube channel. It was from shutter cock and the content was very very good. The other thing that you have to think about if you're going to do flat layer and overhead is what are the dishes that you will be using because you could make the most gorgeous. Let's say sauteed kale and Being dish it could look beautiful. And if you put it into a black dish, you're not going to see it. Well, so will you have contrasting plates? Will you use any other adornments to the table which I don't know always think are necessary because if you want to focus on the food you want to focus on the food and not the little candelabra that will distract your viewer having them think. Oh, I wonder where she got that and then they'll totally forget about the excellent content of the food that you're offering. So those would be my three little tips to start and good luck with your adventure. I will tell you my friend Jane esselsten has a very popular YouTube channel and she realized long ago and early on that the content and the quality of the videos that she was making was crucial. So a friend comes and does all of her videos and they are perfect and look wonderful. I my other suggestion to you is there's a wonderful plant-based Rd is her name on Instagram. She does all of her own videos and her content is absolutely beautiful. So go on social media and look and see what sites you like that you might like to emulate and maybe take a couple of tips from so good luck and let us know when you create your Channel.
